RB Leipzig centre-back Dayot Upamecano insists that he is "feeling very good" at the Red Bull Arena amid growing talk of a possible move to Arsenal.

Dayot Upamecano has acknowledged that his form is attracting interest from big clubs but reiterated that he will wait until the end of the season before making a decision on his RB Leipzig future.

The France Under-21s international is a regular in the gossip columns, most recently seeing his name mentioned as a possible summer target for Arsenal.

Mikel Arteta is said to be a big fan of Upamecano and is hopeful of striking a £52m deal with Leipzig for the centre-back's signature.

However, Upamecano has played down talk of a move away by insisting that he is currently happy at the Red Bull Arena, where he is under contract for another year.

"I am feeling very good at RB Leipzig," he told Foot Mercato.

"I like my teammates, the staff and my club. For the moment, I am still under contract until 2021. I am going to have to continue to train well and play matches.

"Even though I know that there are clubs that want me, that is certain, I am keeping my feet on the ground.

"We will discuss my future at the end of the season with my agents and my family."

Upamecano has made 20 league appearances this season for Leipzig, who trail Bundesliga leaders Bayern Munich by three points.
